  2. Mechanochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanochemistry

    Mechanochemistry (or mechanical chemistry) is the initiation of chemical reactions by mechanical phenomena. Mechanochemistry thus represents a fourth way to cause chemical reactions, complementing thermal reactions in fluids, photochemistry, and electrochemistry. Conventionally mechanochemistry focuses on the transformations of covalent bonds ...

  3. Mechanical engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_engineering

    Various machine components used in mechanical engineering. Mechanical engineering is the study of physical machines that may involve force and movement. It is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. [1]

  4. Surface modification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_modification

    Surface engineering is the sub-discipline of materials science which deals with the surface of solid matter. It has applications to chemistry, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering (particularly in relation to semiconductor manufacturing). Solids are composed of a bulk material covered by a surface.

  5. Transport phenomena - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_phenomena

    Some of the most common examples of transport analysis in engineering are seen in the fields of process, chemical, biological, [1] and mechanical engineering, but the subject is a fundamental component of the curriculum in all disciplines involved in any way with fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mass transfer.

  6. Chemical engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_engineering

    Chemical engineers design, construct, and operate process plants, such as these fractionating columns.. Chemical engineering is an engineering field which deals with the study of the operation and design of chemical plants as well as methods of improving production.

  7. Materials science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materials_science

    The intellectual origins of materials science stem from the Age of Enlightenment, when researchers began to use analytical thinking from chemistry, physics, and engineering to understand ancient, phenomenological observations in metallurgy and mineralogy. [1] [2] Materials science still incorporates elements of physics, chemistry, and ...

  8. Engineering physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_physics

    Engineering physics (EP), sometimes engineering science, is the field of study combining pure science disciplines (such as physics, mathematics, chemistry or biology) and engineering disciplines (computer, nuclear, electrical, aerospace, medical, materials, mechanical, etc.).
